As a foodie at heart I love finding the best local cuisines and amazing people to share that experience with. I also love cruising to get a taste of unforgettable locations that I will eventually come back to explore in depth. I have been fortunate to cruise through Europe and the Mexican Riviera, and I hope I can find a cruise line and destination that best suits your desires. I am excited to help you find the best destination and experience to make your next vacation unforgettable!

Many couples who postponed their weddings and honeymoons due to COVID-19 are making up for it with elaborate celebrations. After patiently waiting out the pandemic with your significant other, why not make your honeymoon extra-special now that you’re vaccinated and feel safe to travel? Here are some ideas on how to embrace the urge to splurge on your honeymoon.
INDULGE IN GOURMET MEALS
Nothing beats the atmosphere of dining overlooking the ocean at a luxurious beach resort. Make sure you’re getting the highest quality experience by dining at the top-rated restaurants around.Treat yourselves to a multi-course meal featuring fresh local cuisine from your destination. And make sure to let the staff know you’re on your honeymoon you never know if complimentary champagne will be sent to your table.That goes for every part of your trip from beginning to end honeymoon perks can include goodies like chocolate-covered strawberries, a cheese plate and wine greeting you in your room upon arrival or after your meals in the evening.
ARRANGE PRIVATE EXCURSIONS
If your resort or cruise ship offers exciting excursions, check if you can forgo group activities and turn it into a private tour.Think romantic horseback rides on the beach, private sunset catamaran sails,hot air balloon rides, swimming under rainforest waterfalls, enjoying a picnic at the top of a mountain. Take advantage of your honeymoon location’s amazing scenery for the ultimate in romantic date ideas. If you’re more the adventurous type than romantic, ask about adrenaline fueled activities like zip-lining through a rainforest, private helicopter tours over stunning landscapes, ATV adventures,scuba diving and more.
HIRE A PHOTOGRAPHER
Ask your travel advisor or resort about local photographers for hire. They’ll capture the two of you at your happiest with gorgeous scenery as a backdrop. If you really want to splurge and you already have a good relationship with your wedding photographer, pay for them to come to your honeymoon destination and take photos on-site. When you get back home, frame your favorites or put them in a photo album for everlasting memories to revisit.
UPGRADE YOUR ROOM
The “honeymoon suite” at luxury resorts is designed for romantic, splurge-worthy occasions. If you’re staying at a resort, ask your travel advisor about any honeymoon suite packages or splurges. Does the hotel offer in-room hot tubs, villas with spectacular ocean views, private plunge pools, secluded gardens or butler service?You can even watch tropical fish swim beneath your feet through glass panels of an over water bungalow in the South Pacific. Think of the most extravagant resort features you can imagine and upgrade your stay to include them.
PAMPER YOURSELF
Make spa time a bonding experience by purchasing packages you’re likely to only indulge in on your honeymoon. In-suite,oceanfront or private garden couples’ massages are offered at many high-end resorts. And they go all-out to set a romantic atmosphere expect thoughtful touches like candle lighting, champagne,aromatic oils and sunset views. After the stress of planning a wedding, a spa treatment is just what you and your new spouse need.
BUY A MEANINGFUL SOUVENIR
Treat yourself and your spouse to a special purchase or two at your honeymoon destination. It’s also a great way to support local independentbusinesses and artists. If you want to buy jewelry, find gems or designs that have special meaning to the destination or the two of you. Buy artwork that depicts your honeymoon landscapes or city-scapes so you can hang it up in your home and always remember this time in your life.
